Caught a cold? Don't panic!

So here we go again, the second time in this season that I caught a cold. During winter is difficult to always stay healthy. However, before reaching for popular painkillers, which normally fight the fever, too, try something different first.

I love treating a cold with natural methods. They often are more beneficial to our body than synthetic pills. My regular team of fever-fighters consists of: honey, turmeric, garlic, so called dog rose (rosa canina) infusion, raspberry juice and lemon. Due to the considerable concentration of vitamin C, they can be very helpful in reducing high temperature, dealing with cough and runny nose. They also act as natural antibiotics which kill the virus. I mix all these things or eat the separately, e.x. I drink several cups of infusions a day and add chopped garlic to what I eat. You are free to add other herbs and stuff you like.

The results may not be as fast as when taking a pill, but they do come up and your body will definitely be grateful to you in the future. Of course, I also take pills if I can handle no more or the pain is unbearable, but I try to start with less “heavy” means first. Why don’t you check it out the next time you feel bad?

Why don’t you have a rest?

source: forsal.pl Nowadays people are living so fast. Every morning you can see them almost running to get to work, pupils with big school bags walking fast because they’ve overslept, old ladies going to the market in order to be the first in buying the best groceries and cars passing by with an incredible speed.  What makes all of them losing their heads? Well, the answer is pretty simple: money and obligations. All the society is used to this type of life and I’m afraid sometimes we don’t have any other option. I’m one of these “running people”. I always walk hurriedly and have a lot of things to do in my tense schedule. It’s very annoying when someone is walking slowly in front of me and I can’t get ahead. In such situations I have an impression that this person is stealing my valuable time. Of course it’s not true, but when you have a hundred things to do, every minute is priceless. However, every day I try to find a moment only for myself and I think all of us should t...

Let it snow!

Source: https://www.biznews.com/briefs/2014/02/25/harsh-weather-tests-optimism-u-s-economy There are two kinds of people – these who like snow and these who hate it. I’m somewhere in the middle of this battle. To me, snow is a nice thing in December, with all those lights, Christmas Trees and other adornments. It looks really magic when combined together. I love these lazy evenings with my decorative candles lighting in the room, a good film and snow outside. Nothing better than moments like this, with a warm blanket, of course! However, if the snow falls in April when it’s absolutely not supposed to, I rather hate it. Moreover, I’m cold almost every day so winter is especially tricky to me as I try to stay warm at home or during classes and snow doesn’t help at all. I hope it will fall at Christmas Eve, though, which isn't now as obvious in Poland as it used to be :)

So proud!

Yesterday we celebrated the biggest Polish national holiday – The Independence Day. However, it wasn’t just another celebration, because it was the hundredth anniversary! For this reason, I would like to touch on the matter of manifesting our nationality and being proud of it . I think nowadays it’s so important to remember about people to whom we owe freedom, for example Józef Piłsudski. It’s quite sad that there are still so many of us who don’t hang out Polish flags on that day. Every time I’m in Spain, especially during a national holiday, I notice a lot of flags waving on balconies. I guess in the United States every single house has a flag on July 4 th , Americans always do this and I assume they can’t imagine not to. It should be important to everyone, even more for a country that fought as bitterly for its freedom as Poland and sacrificed millions of lives. Be proud!  source: https://www.mjakmama24.pl/szkola/nauka/flaga-polski-kolorowanka-do-druku,580_1...
